This week I have been counting my extra blessings. These are things I CAN live without but God blessed me with them and they give extra pleasure at present. He knows my heart's delight. And I take delight in Him.
The hammock in my patio. I sit here to rest after gardening.My coffee maker . I've enjoyed unlimited cups of freshly brewed coffee.For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD gives grace and glory;No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly.Psalm 84:11
The sofa in the corner of my bedroom. It's a gift from a friend. It's where I read books, blog, or crochet. My friend knew it was my idea of a green pasture.
Delight yourself in the LORD
and He will give you the desires of your heart.Psalm 37:4My laptop. I've done many projects with it!My pocket camera. It's with me all the time. It's always in my purse when I go out and it hangs on my neck when I'm at home. God knows I love photography.
I shall make mention of the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD has granted us....Isaiah 63:7
The list goes on and on. I'm so blessed. God has lavished me with His goodness. I must keep a thankful heart.
He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all,how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?Romans 8:32

This was such a blessing to me. There are SO many things to be thankful for. I especially liked in this post how it seemed that the LORD was with you (and us as we read) as you gave thanks ~ the way you included the verses.
And from your last post, I am glad you are eating more raw food too :)
The LORD truly is involved in every detail of our life and I love how you make that so real with your posts.
GREAT list! I love how you started by saying that these are things you can do w/out, but are still nice to have in your life.
